    Yedoye Travis was in Russian Doll and I haven’t heard him mention it.
    funny and clever podcast. I enjoy the host and the topics but the quality of the white guests can vary pretty wildly. Great way to hear about new comics though. Yedoye has a pretty nice voice too, even though sometimes I’m not sure what he is trying to say. Audio quality needs a little work.

    PERFECT [Street Fighter II voice]
    I never write reviews but this Podcast is worth speaking on. I only found out about this podcast from Get in The Robot where Yedoye's commentary stood out. This podcast is necessary and if you weren't so triggered from its premise you'd realize it's SATIRE. To an extent that is, of course there are definitely real truths in all of this. But, all in all worth the listen. Btw, reverse racism is a hilarious unrealistic concept😂. White ppl telling other ppl they're being shamed for being white is hilarious. I digress, enjoy this refreshing content from both demographics.

    Disgraceful
    The description says it all. Unbelievably hypocritical and disappointing that this app would allow this blatantly racist podcast to be be publicized.

    White sweat> white tears
    Super smart podcast & clever play on words for the title. Always funny & entertaining, plus a dope way to discover more up & coming Black comedians. But the best part is being able to scoff at the feeble attempts of the gentripreneurs tryna solve racism. *insert Seymour Skinner ‘pathetic’ meme*

    Pissing off racist white people enough that they waste their time to write a review?
    I’m in.
  • Waverly Waves
    Good looks
    Cool cats that are my age, living in this age, just talking through the silent rage. 👌🏾

    Sound quality is awful
    An interesting premise - would like to listen but I can’t hear it all. Some people speak really quietly and I have to turn volume all the way up then one person speaks up and breaks my ear drums. I’ll try it again when they learn to modulate the sound. For now - no - too frustrating.
  • we're all in this together
    A new low
    Welcome to the new racism.

    Challenging, Provocative, Another Way to have the “Conversation”
    As a white middle aged white woman I say, if we want to undo racism in this white-dominant culture in all its forms (it is destructive to ALL peoples) and get to a level playing field for one and all, we have to accept it will be a messy, uncomfortable and hard going. A lot of approaches to and forums for educating whites and making advances towards a level playing field will have to be tried and explored. An intelligent, humorous tact - with many a truth might be said in between and in the jests - is a good one to have. Dark Tank at its best can be this. But like so many of these approaches, it can at times miss the mark (e.g., be too too biting, tame or off course), but it’s worth a listen and support. Keep at it Yedoye!

    Don’t waste your time
    OMG! Get over it already. Ridiculous premise and totally absurd.
  • Xxx888??
    Switch the roles of the 2 races involved and the show would be canceled.
    This podcast is the reason that racism is still an issue. Race doesn’t matter at all in anyway for anything. All this does is continue this “us VS. them” mentality and it’s disgusting. My god, can we please stop caring about skin color?

    Freaking brilliant
    What an amazing podcast. It confronts racism but is also digestible and hilarious, I was astounded the second I heard about it. This is revolutionary. This is a must listen for everyone.
  • Andrea 479535
    Love the topic, bad audio
    The subject matter and guests are great and as a white women I am learning LOTS. But the audio levels change constantly meaning I have to constantly change the volume setting or miss half the content. It makes it really hard to listen to. If the content weren't so good I would give up on it.

    A Test of Your Intelligence
    The people who hate it and call it racist are just too stupid to get the point.
  • allison83095
    Hypocritical ideology
    It’s really disappointing that it’s socially acceptable to hate white people, just for existing. I know many black people don’t CARE that their words hurt, but that doesn’t change that they do. Two wrongs don’t make a right, and being racist to heal from racism will never work. I hope this whole podcast is satire, but these conversations are so common nowadays that I doubt it
  • sammylovespods
    You’re missing the point.
    Yedoye is such a fresh voice in the comedy scene. All of the POC he brings on to “tolerate” are also such quick-witted people. If you’re really concerned about this being “race-baiting,” you’re missing the larger picture. As if one white person could actually solve racism... It’s satire... Relax and listen with an open mind. The white people fail miserably but it’s always goofy and speaks to a larger message about our society.

    SO GOOD!
    This podcast is great! The panel is always full of killers and so are the guests! It's good, smart, silly and thought provoking! Cannot recommend enough!
  • karenlibrarian
    There’s hope
    I’m a middle aged white lady and listening to this podcast gives me hope for our future. The host, panelists, and entrepreneurs are so clever and funny as they tackle the extremely tough and depressing realities of racism and white supremacy. Great premise, great execution.
  • AK2771167
    Lots of laughs
    Don’t understand the “this is racist”comments it’s great.
  • Chrstine N
    Sound
    I’m enjoying the content so far, but struggling to hear it in the car where I do most of my listening. It goes between very quiet so I turn the volume up, and then piercingly loud with some speakers/laughter.
  • Kids Casio
    Great show
    I love this show, it’s a very fun platform and great access to new comedians! If i could give an extra star for all the white fragility in the comments i would 🔥🔥🔥 keep it up!
  • ChiaraCGP
    Dark Tank is Fantastic
    Yedoye and this podcast deserve more attention, potentially from a mainstream podcast network like Gimlet Media. I do think the show could be a little more structured, but the originality and wit of the premise are bar none
  • anothernicknametaken
    Quality content
    It’s earnest in weird ways, balanced in weird ways, and an uncompromising delight. Totally worth a subscription.
  • Raven_Shoes
    Fantastic
    Great podcast
  • Dindu Travis
    Racist podcast - shame on Apple
    Garbage, race-baiting podcast that's meant to be divisive. Shame on Apple for hosting this - imagine if the races where flipped. This podcast would be banned immediately. I reported this and encrourage others to do the same.
  • me ovahea
    Of course “it’s racist!”
    Checkout the podcast from the first episode. You won’t regret it. Especially you “this is racist” people. If you got offended by it, maybe you should be. Hopefully it’ll make you think about the way you’re seeing life.
  • Jonathanm95
    Love this
    Too many fellow white folks talk about the solutions to systemic racism in echo chambers of other white people. This was refreshing.
  • KR2008
    Mhmm
    Yep. It’s a good one. Clever, funny, articulate, silly.
  • berniegirl8436
    Very bad podcast. Racist and not funny.
    I’m a liberal, and even I think this is bad. I believe in free speech but people should know what kind of racism is being spewed here.
  • TinleyChiFrankfort
    Wow. This is very racist and hateful.
    These people should be ashamed of themselves.
  • The Bouncer!

  • mcekul
    yes yes yes
    this podcast is eye opening and honest and i love it. great conversations and a much needed perspective my only request would be bump the audio up a little, can be hard to hear with earbuds in a noisy place
  • JohnJohnPhenomenon
    One Of The Best New Podcasts
    As someone who listens to podcasts at work and on my commute I go through a lot of them every week and some get pretty stale pretty quickly. This, however, never ceases to be fresh, informative and funny. I hope Yedoye and his rotating cast continue forever.
  • DanceGrooves
